Fascinating tidbit I just learned & didnt know. A Presidential ticket cannot have the President & VP coming from the same state. Thus this rumor that #MichaelBloomberg is thinking about having @HillaryClinton as VP may just be #disinfo being pushed out by someone #Elections2020
Haven't found the specific statute that says the President & VP can't come from the same state ...but seems 2b what multiple congressional sources are saying. Plus it appears this whole rumor started at The Drudge Report. Who knows by whom & for what purpose ..but this sums it up
Thank you @Bogajo .... sure enough it is in the 12th Amendment of our Constitution.
Okay it of course is more complicated. Technically one could pick a VP from the same state as @File411 points out in this @PolitiFact article. However it would be strategically dumb and would disadvantage the ticket in terms of the electoral college. politifact.com/factchecks/201…
Looks like #Qanon is sad that the Bloomberg / Hillary story is not true. All that time spent creating those memes ... tough week for the #Qanon cult first Andrew McCabe was exonerated & now this #WWG1WGA
